Stella and Luna

Good morning!  Happy Tuesday!  Hope your week is off to a great start!  I was out all day yesterday and will be out a lot of today, too, but before I head out, I wanted to share a card I made with another fun MayzyArt image. I was thrilled when Mayzy told me she was featuring my blog on her blog today!  My card today is for Friday Sketch Challenge #22, Jackson's Digital Expressions #15 (anything goes) and Digital Tuesday #170 (photo inspiration).

Here is the sketch:

And here is the photo inspiration:

Here is my card:

I took my inspiration from the soft purple, peach and blue colors in the photo.  I started with a card base of SU Chocolate Chip and layered with patterned papers from the Basic Grey What's Up 6x6 pad.  My sweet image is Stella and Luna from MayzyArt.  She can be found in Mayzy's Etsy shop here.  I printed her on Copic X-Press It and colored her with my Copics.  I added a bit of Stickles her and there for a little sparkle.  A few roses and aster daisies from Wild Orchid Crafts and three adhesive pearls from my stash finished my card.

Here is a close-up of the image:

Here are links on my blog to a few other cards or projects I've made with Mayzy's fun images: Shawna With Latte, Rosebud the Fairy, Lemon Lucy, Let's Party and Berry Betty.

Thanks for stopping by!  I hope to get back later and check out all your blogs.  I've missed visiting these last couple of days!

Have a good one and see you soon!

Family Is Best

Hi again!  I'm dropping in for just a quick second to share I card I made today.  If you are looking for my Heartfelt Creations Design Team Alumni post, click here.  You only have another couple of hours to comment to be in the running for the $25 GC to the HC store.  Winner will be announced tomorrow by noon.

Here  is the card I made for the CAS Challenge #1 on the Jackson Digital Expressions blog.  The theme was Anything Goes with a twist - to use a family theme.

Here is my card:

I kept it as CAS as I could and I did use the family theme.  I started with a card base of GKD Turquoise Sea and layered with a panel of Layering Weight White that I embossed with the SU Tulip Border folder.  My image is Sisterhood by Robert Jackson.  You can find it in Robert's store here.  It was the image I chose for winning last week's challenge!  I printed it on Copic XPress-It Blending Card and colored with my Copics.  I 'm still trying to get the hang of coloring with this new paper.  I added a bunch of Stickles and Liquid Pearls to their hats and jewelry for some added sparkle.  The sentiment is from Paulette at Create With TLC.  Except for the coloring, this really was a CAS creation! I didn't even add any ribbon or other embellishments!

Gotta run now.  Thanks for stopping by again!  Hope you have a great evening and wonderful weekend!

Fashion Fades, Style Remains

Hello!  Can't believe it's already Sunday evening!  It's been a busy weekend for us. DH had a big golf tournament this weekend and I spent most of today watching the final match. Sadly, he missed winning the whole championship by one stroke after nearly 80 holes of play, but it was an exciting match today and fun to be there to watch.  When I wasn't at the golf course, I managed to get a card done for the Jackson Digital Expressions Sketch Challenge #1 (use sketch and pastel colors).

Here is the sketch:

Here is my card:

I started with a card base of GKD Innocent Pink and layered with pastel patterned papers from the Authentique Delightful 6x6 pad.  My image is Sharp Girl  from Robert Jackson.  It is available in Robert's store here.  I printed her on Cryogen White and colored her with  Copic markers.  I added some Stickles to her hat, shoes, handbag and jacket for some sparkle.  The sentiment is from Paulette at Create With TLC.  Some Papertrey Spring Moss ribbon and a few yellow pearls from my stash finished my card.

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a great rest of the evening and hope to see you again soon!

Irresistible

Hi there!  Happy Wednesday!  Can't believe the week is halfway by already!  I am feeling a little better every day so I hope to be back to normal soon.  I am popping in really quickly to share a card I made for a couple of challenges.  It is for the first challenge on the new Jackson's Digital Expression blog. The team launched the new blog and challenges on Monday and I thought I'd  play along.  The theme this time is "anything goes".  I used Card Patterns Sketch #160 for my layout.

Here is the Card Patterns sketch:

Here is my card:

I started with a card base of GKD Black Onyx and layered with patterned papers from the Prima Melody 6x6 pad.  My image is She's Fierce from Fine Arts by Robert Jackson.  You can find her on his site here.  I printed her on Cryogen White and colored her with Copics.  I added some Stardust and Peacock Stickles and some clear rhinestones for some sparkle on her hat, handbag and earrings.  The sentiment is from Paulette at Create With TLC.  A few more rhinestones and some Wild Orchid Crafts roses finished off my card.

Thanks for stopping by!  Hope to see you soon!
